Neil Young’s music has banned from a Fort McMurray, Canada radio station after he compared the oil-rich region to Hiroshima, Japan, after the United States dropped the atomic bomb in August 1945.

According to MSN.com, Fort McMurray radio station Rock 97.9 will no longer play Young’s music after made the remarks about the Alberta area while talking about the controversial Keystone X-L Pipeline project during a news conference in Washington, D.C. this week.

Young opposes the plan that calls for transporting oil from what has frequently been referred to as “tar sands” oil fields in the area down to Texas. Young, who’s Canadian, said the area has been wrecked by pollution, “The fact is, Fort McMurray looks like Hiroshima. There’s fumes everywhere. You can smell it when you get to town.”

Rock 97.9 host Chris Byrne said the station was swamped with complaints about Young’s comments, which prompted bosses to remove the rocker from their playlists. Which, of course, will solve the problem and everyone will live hapily ever after.

Or not.

According to CBC News, Byrne said “Rock listeners are pretty apathetic people. It takes a lot to get their ire up. But based on the number of emails and voicemails that I’ve gotten, I don’t think … a topic … has caused more people to call in or write in than this. … To (put) Fort McMurray on the same level as a nuclear bomb, dropped to end a world war — when you get to that extreme, you kind of have to get into specifics.”

In a video clip recorded by a student, a psychology instructor at Orange Coast College told her class that the election of Donald Trump was “an act of terrorism” – prompting an official complaint from the school’s Republican Club.
